Chapter 299 Fire

The moment the huge fungus mass was formed, Wu Chang was pulled into a space similar to the world in a mirror.

The walls of the original attic were no longer visible around him, and the space had expanded more than a hundred times. He seemed to be in a grassland, but there was no grass here, only endless colorful fluorescent fungal carpets.

The thick fungal carpet and the fungal mass are integrated into one, and they maintain the same frequency of fluctuations, as if this space is a huge living thing.

At the same time, the black mist emanating from the mark of doom on Wu Chang's body was no longer satisfied with surrounding him.

The thick black fog dissipated and turned into a black sky, echoing the fungal carpet under his feet.

There were overwhelming movements all around, but Wu Chang did not pay any attention to them. His eyes were fixed on the huge fungus mass.

The mushroom men merged together, gathering the light red resentment on their bodies onto the fungus mass.

Wu Chang saw the scenes left by those resentments, all of which came from the people around Amber.

Some came from Amber’s adoptive parents, some from Amber’s teachers, some from the neighbors next door, and one group came from the previous director of the orphanage, who is also the biological sister of the current director Susan.

These resentments contain the good memories they had with Amber.

In those memories, they were all using love to heal the girl with a tragic life experience, wanting her to open her heart and walk out of the haze of the past.

However, every time Amber smiled again, disaster and accidents came unexpectedly.

At the end of the resentment, they were still concerned about Amber, worrying whether she would close her heart again because of his death.

In other words, it was precisely because they valued Amber so much that they were harmed by the giant fungus.

The resentment that impressed him the most came from the previous director of the orphanage, Sister Amanda.

She is a devout believer and possesses the love and mercy that a clergyman should have.

Every time Amber's adoptive family encountered an accident or Amber was abandoned, she would open the door of the orphanage without hesitation and give Amber a hug while she curled up outside the door.

She often took Amber to the orphanage church to pray, and warned Amber to be a good person no matter what setbacks she encountered.

Although gods cannot speak, they see everything people do in the world.

As long as they are kind and grateful, the gods will forgive everyone's sins and free them from suffering.

Amanda believed it firmly, and Amber believed in Amanda, so she also believed it.

Under Amanda's protection, Amber spent a peaceful and warm time. She aspired to become a nun like Amanda when she grew up and pass on warmth to others.

The accident happened on Christmas Day two years ago. On Christmas Eve, Amanda brought Amber to the church to pray for the birthday of God.

Amber stood in front of the white stone statue of the god, clasped her hands together, and prayed softly.

She asked if she followed Dean Amanda's request, believed in God devoutly, and tried to be a good child, she could be saved and escape from suffering.

In response to Amber's prayer, the statue did not speak, but slowly leaned forward.

The face of the statue falling down was gloomy and ferocious.

Amber was so panicked that she stood there, at a loss as to what to do. Fortunately, Amanda reacted in time and pushed Amber aside.

She rescued Amber, but was crushed under the marble statue.

Amber burst out with amazing strength and moved the statue away from Amanda, but Amanda's broken ribs pierced her internal organs and she could feel her life slipping away rapidly.

She tried to take something out of her pocket. It was a golden five-pointed star, which was also the gift she was going to give to Amber today.

A miniature Star of Bethlehem.

It symbolizes hope, salvation and divine guidance and is often placed at the top of the Christmas tree.

She wanted to give it to Amber and tell her that she and the Star of Bethlehem would guide Amber's final path.

Unfortunately, she never gave away the blood-stained five-pointed star in her hand until the end of her life.

When Sister Susan arrived with medical staff, they could only see Amber kicking and hitting the collapsed statue like crazy.

Wu Chang took a deep breath to calm down the scene he saw in the midst of a cloud of resentment.

His fists were clenched so tightly that the knuckles turned white, and the anger in his eyes flickered like flames.

Looking at the huge fungus mass beating like a heart, he wanted to curse, but he was at a loss for words.

He needed a word more offensive than beast.

If his previous feelings towards Amber were mostly utilitarian, mixed with a little pity, for him, helping Amber was no different from helping other natives who posted hidden side quests.

Solving Amber's dilemma was just a piece of cake, an ordinary part of the mission.

But now, with his contact with Amber in the past few days and the scenes he saw in his resentment, he saw a girl who was constantly struggling with her fate and constantly trying to escape from bad luck.

He began to truly regard Amber as his own daughter and wanted to break the misfortune that was entangled with her.

As for the rewards for hidden side quests, they become less important.

He stared at the huge fungus mass, gnashing his teeth and said:
"You really deserve to die!"

Coincidentally, the giant fungus thought the same of Wu Chang.

Many faces emerged from the fungal carpet around Wu Chang, and they shouted together:

"Go to hell! Go to hell!"

Along with the sound of the fungus, the mark of doom on Wu Chang's body burst out.

In the sky covered by dark clouds, an eye suddenly opened, and it fell all the way down and merged with the fungus.

Wu Chang felt an intrusive gaze from that eye, which seemed to see through his skin and flesh and reach the deepest secrets in his heart.

He was very familiar with this strong and penetrating gaze. It was the bastard who ruined his plans last night.

Wu Chang laughed, angrily, and his laughter grew louder and louder, becoming difficult to control.

You're here at the right time. You're here at the right time!

You two have completely offended our family of three. Today, I will make sure you two never come back.

Wu Chang felt murderous in his heart, but he did not act rashly.

He saw three clusters of light red resentment on the eye monster, but unlike the giant fungus cluster, the resentment on the eye monster belonged to the players.

Judging from the scenes in Resentment, it has been hunting homeless players at night. The players it encounters are not simple, and among them is even a core player of Western Union.

But the one who posed the greatest threat to it among the three players was not the Western Union player, but an individual player who was hiding in the alley disguised as a homeless person.

The player's name is Parker. He is different from the players in the other two grudges. Perhaps because of his personal experience, he saw the true form of the eye monster.

There are countless eyes everywhere, densely packed.

Parker calls the monster Thousand Eyes.

Qianmu's lethality is limited, far inferior to the centipede puppet that Wu Chang had seen before. Even when facing a player with suppressed attributes, victory is not achieved by direct ability attacks.

But what is missing in numbers is exchanged for a powerful mechanism.

Once the battle begins, countless Thousand Eyes will surround the prey, and all the prey's actions will be exposed to the Thousand Eyes' sight.

All attacks that require charging and have a pre-swing will be seen through by Qianmu.

Once a skill is detected and dodged by Qianmu, the dodged attack will be returned to the attacker. Only instant skills without pre-swing and charging, and skills that are guaranteed to hit, can hit Qianmu.

The other two grievances, including the core player of Western Union, fell into this mechanism.

Due to the limited attributes, it is difficult for players to carry out a protracted battle, so they use their most powerful skills at the beginning, trying to end the battle quickly. If their all-out attack fails, they turn around and flee.

However, the charging time exposed their intentions too early. Not only did their ultimate attacks miss the target, but the opponent who hit the empty space also suddenly appeared behind them and seriously injured themselves.

Unlike these two players, Parker saw the dense eyes from the beginning and did not pursue a quick victory. He tested this mechanism at a very low cost.

It is not enough to just hit the Thousand Eyes, you also need to hit the most unique one among its many eyes to really hurt it.

Parker didn't notice it at first, but as the battle continued, when his will gradually returned to zero and his inspiration got out of control, he saw the malicious green eye hidden behind thousands of eyes.

Previously, when attacking ordinary eyes, even if the target eye was shattered, it would not affect other eyes.

But when he scratched the green eye with his skill, all the eyes in the alley showed the same scar.

Unfortunately, as soon as he discovered this secret, his consciousness completely collapsed.

Wu Chang looked at the huge bacterial colony. The eyes that appeared on it at this moment were not green. It seemed that he had to get rid of the bacterial mass first before he could solve the problem of the Thousand Eyes.

He took out the Dawn Hammer, switched to fire suppression mode, raised his gun and pulled the trigger at the huge fungus mass.

This time he did not use dense needle-shaped bullets, but switched to single-shot explosive beams.

The beam of light flashed by, and the huge fungus cluster and Thousand Eyes had no time to react before they were swallowed up by the dazzling explosion.

The explosion range was larger than he thought and almost affected him. Fortunately, Amber was not dragged into the special space, otherwise the monster would not hurt Amber, and his shot would accidentally hurt a friendly force, which would be a lot of fun.

After the explosion, only a charred deep pit remained where the huge fungus cluster had originally existed. The fungus cluster, the eyes, and even the fungal carpet all evaporated in the explosion.

The bacteria that were evaporated by the explosion turned into colorful steam and rose into the sky. When it encountered the cold black fog, the two merged and turned into dirty-colored raindrops mixed with multiple pigments, which fell down.

Before Wu Chang could approach to take another shot, mushroom flowers bloomed on the fungus blanket watered by raindrops. The mushroom flowers turned into little mushroom men, and each little mushroom man had a thousand-eyed eye on his cap.

"Go to hell! Go to hell!"

The curses overlapped each other, as if physically polluting Wu Chang's mind.

Wu Chang fired again. This time he used needle-shaped bullets, which automatically and accurately locked onto the surrounding targets. The mushroom men fell down one after another like the minions in a lawn mowing game. It looked extremely relaxing.

But the fallen mushroom man can be transformed into nutrients again and split into more mushroom men.

Until now, the green eyes that Wu Chang was waiting for have not appeared.

Tsk, you can’t kill them all, right?
Wu Chang wanted to fire the needle-shaped bullet again, but before pulling the trigger, an alarm went off in his mind. His inspiration told him not to pull the trigger.

Could it be that as the Thousand Eyes Devoured more players, a new mechanism developed, making it so that the same skill could not be effective on it twice?
He put away the Hammer of Dawn and released the Bite of Deep Water.

Wherever the Deep Water Bite passed, the mushroom men fell down like wheat being cut, but the mushroom men in the distance had not yet died, while the mushroom men nearby had already regenerated.

The regenerated mushroom man not only did not fall down in the poisonous fog, but instead made Wu Chang feel dizzy and his hands and feet were somewhat out of control.

He was poisoned by himself.

Not only that, the fungus also took advantage of the rebounding toxins to cause damage to it. He raised his hand and could see tiny mushrooms growing out of the pores on the back of his hand.

He quickly retracted the Deep Water Bite and did not dare to use it again. At the same time, he took out the Four-Directions Fire Lamp. Under the illumination of the Fire of Time, the mushrooms on the back of his hand withered.

This monster that is a combination of a thousand eyes and a fungus cluster is really a bit tricky.

Wu Chang sighed. For the first time, he felt disgusted that the enemy he encountered was not strong enough.

If Qianmu possessed divinity, even just a little bit, he could use Blasphemer to directly attack the opponent's origin.

Wu Chang looked at the mushrooms that were constantly multiplying around him, and felt a sense of helplessness, a rookie trying to defeat the masters.

As long as the Four-Directions Fire Lamp is there, the Thousand-Eyed Fungus Group can't do anything to him, but he seems to be unable to do anything to the Thousand-Eyed Fungus Group either.

He set up a space formation in the living room so that he could leave at any time through space magic whenever he wanted.

But he had promised Amber that he would solve all her problems. If he just ran away like this, how would he save face as a parent?

At this point, we can only ask for help.

A space array unfolded from under his feet, and with a flash of light, Irene appeared in the colony space.

The space magic teleportation can not only teleport yourself, but also teleport your teammates.

Irene already knew everything that happened in the space through mental communication.

After entering the space, she did not hesitate and directly switched to the true body of the god. Huge wings of light spread out behind her. As the wings flapped, holy beams of light fell from the sky and landed on the fungal carpet.

The beam of light contains the power of purification, but to the fungal blanket, purification is a more deadly poison than the Bite of the Deep.

Wherever the light went, golden flames ignited on the fungal carpet. Wherever the flames passed, the fungal carpet, the mushroom men and even the entire fungal space were burned to ashes.

Irene's power of light is the nemesis of weird and evil spirits. Coupled with the numerical crushing of the god's true body, the fungus has no ability to fight back.

After a few breaths, the fungus space was completely shattered amid the screams of the mushroom man, and Wu Chang and Irene returned to the attic.

He originally wanted to beat the fungus half to death so that his true self could harvest and stack strength, but the fungus insisted on struggling, causing him to use Irene and lose at least five points of strength.

This debt must be repaid by the surviving Qianmu.

The fungus space is similar to the world in the mirror, both have the effect of suppressing perception. Now that the fungus space is gone, Thousand-Eyed's body has nowhere to hide, and densely packed strange eyes suddenly appear in the attic.

Wu Chang's inspiration attribute is much higher than Parker's when his inspiration is out of control. He can find the one with green pupil among the many eyes at a glance.

If I can’t deal with the fungus, can I deal with you?
He raised his hand to stop Irene's action, then shook his elbow and started from zero frame.

"Man!"

He had just entered the Abyss game and had elbowed the Eye of Leman in the trial copy. It was only a thousand eyes, so naturally he couldn't dodge it. He was immediately elbowed so hard that his eyes were bloodshot and full of pain.

The giant fungus died so quickly that Wu Chang had no place to vent his anger, and he could only vent it on Thousand Eyes.

"You like to peep, right? I'll show you something interesting!" Wu Chang tightly grasped the green eyes, and used his two thumbs to pry open its eyelids, forcing it to open its eyes.

From the beginning of the battle, Wu Chang could feel Qianmu's gaze wanting to pierce into his heart, wanting to spy on the fear in his memories.

Reading fear, launching mental attacks against psychological loopholes, and expanding psychological loopholes are Qianmu’s main attack methods.

Because of this move, Parker's willpower was reduced to zero, causing his inspiration to run wild.

However, Wu Chang's willpower of 47 points is like the door of a vault. The ability of Thousand Eyes can only see through a layer of frosted glass. Its impact on Wu Chang is at most equivalent to scratching the door of the vault with fingernails.

No harm done, but the noise was disgusting.

But now, Wu Chang took the initiative to open the door of the vault and took Qianmu for a tour.

What should I take it to see?
The fourth brother's collection? No, that's too cruel. Monsters also have human rights.

Since you are a monster, let me show you some of your own kind.

Wu Chang mobilized his memories and let Qianmu see the true form of Lehman that he had seen before.

Considering that both parties are eyes, they might even be related, so they could be more cordial when meeting.

But the moment Qianmu saw Lehman's true form, the pain disappeared from his green pupils, leaving only endless fear and panic.

It broke into countless pieces along the blood in the pupil, and then turned into a ball of red flame in Wu Chang's hand.

Through the flames, Wu Chang could vaguely hear a voice.

"A mere ant is worthy of looking directly into the eyes of God?"

Wu Chang shook his head towards the flame in his hand and said, "I told you not to look blindly. Look, you have made the God Lehman angry."

The core green eye died, and the rest of the Thousand Eyes' eyes turned into mist and dissipated.

The fluorescent colony and Thousand Eyes died, and Amber, who was immersed in hallucinations, woke up.

The moment she woke up, she realized something and her face was full of anxiety.

She glanced around, and when she saw Wu Chang's burning right hand, her uneasiness reached its peak.

She ran to Wu Chang quickly, patted the flame in Wu Chang's hand, and kept chanting:

"sorry Sorry."

In a hurry, Amber moved extremely fast, so fast that Wu Chang and Irene couldn't react. It is no exaggeration to say that even without the suppression of the Doom-bound copy, they might not be able to be that fast.

Wu Chang and Irene looked at each other. The origin of their daughter seemed a little unusual.

Wu Chang blew away the remaining flames in his hand in one breath, grabbed Amber's hand, held her in his arms, and reached out to stroke her head.

"It's over, and everything will be fine."

He had learned this from Sister Amanda, who would hug Amber and say this every time she returned to the orphanage.

This sentence was like a magical spell. After Amber heard it, her excitement subsided, the voice of her apology began to lower, and then she fell into a deep sleep.

Wu Chang lifted Amber's hand that was patting the flames and found that part of her palm was burned by the flames.

Seeing this, Irene quickly used light magic to heal Amber's hand injury.

Injuries on the hands are easy to heal, but injuries on other parts of the body are not so easy to heal.

For example, the damage done to the city.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but when Amber’s palm was burned by the flames due to panic, a wildfire broke out on Mount Iside in the south of Sigoff City. The fire was extremely fierce, accompanied by strong winds. It swept across the entire mountain area in a blink of an eye and headed towards the residential area.

Every inch of land at the foot of Mount Iside is valuable, and the largest villa area and wealthy area in Sigfu City are located here.

It enjoys the beautiful view of Mount Iside and you can enjoy the pure natural oxygen bar as soon as you open the door. The neighbors in the community are all upper-class elites. You can easily close a big deal by just organizing a queue and chatting.

Any upper-class person who is well-known in Sigoff City would refuse to buy a property here.

Now, row after row of once-envious mansions are being engulfed in flames.

The sound of the fire alarm cut through the night sky. The hardworking firefighters of Sigoff City put down the brushes that were painting the fire hydrants into rainbow colors, put on their full body gear, and rushed to the fire scene as soon as possible.

They turned into fire warriors and rescued two stray dogs and a litter of stray cats from the raging flames. They then returned to participate in interviews with reporters and enjoy flowers and applause from the city residents.

On the other side of Sigoff City, under the magic of money, White K's bare-knuckle arena has been completely repaired and the first match after reopening is taking place.

Wu Chang took over from Kent and sat in the VIP room on the third floor, looking down at the boxing match below.

He yawned. These boxers were so weak that he felt sleepy. He decided to go back and find a few players who couldn't afford the extra money to save the day.

He leaned on the sofa, preparing to take a nap, when the VIP room was pushed open and Miles rushed in, shouting:
"Boss! Good news! Great news!"

Wu Chang sat up and asked, "What good news?"

Miles said excitedly: "Siegf City is burning! The natural disaster we have been waiting for has happened!"
